Introduction

The following slides use data sourced from the Mississippi State Department of Health. Data are synthesized by Johns Hopkins University and are available here: [https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19]. Code to reproduce these graphs is maintained here: [https://github.com/hunterwyork/ms_covid_viz]. The code can easily be adopted for any state.

These slides are automatically updated. The most recent date of data is visible in the titles of several slides

Introduction, cont.

All cases are as reported by the MSDH. Cases and case rates do not represent the true number of infected individuals in the state. Rather, they reflect availability of testing, testing usage, and actual infection rates. Better metrics for tracking the progress of the pandemic include death rates, hospitalization rates, and testing positivity rates. Only the former was available easily in this data and is included here.
